Video on state broadcaster CCTV showed the students, wearing bright orange life vests, clambering onto boats that took them away from the surreal scene of school buildings rising out of a lake of muddy water.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Animals were also stranded or swept out by the floodwaters.<\/p>\n<p>A zoo in Guigang said more than 100 animals were missing, including two zebras, four porcupines and dozens of tropical birds. In Hengzhou, encounters with snakes that reportedly escaped from a farm prompted authorities to stock up on antivenom and advise residents on what to do if they were bitten.<\/p>\n<p>An animal shelter operator in Binyang county, about 50 miles northwest of Hengzhou, struggled in recent days to rescue about 200 cats and dozens of dogs, bringing the dogs two at a time through deep water.
